Abstract: This paper analyzes how TikTok China's live-streaming platform transforms the marketing of Jingdezhen ceramics. Using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM), the research examines how consumers' perceived value influences their purchase satisfaction and subsequent behavior during Jingdezhen ceramics live-streaming sessions. The model identifies and quantifies key influence pathways, revealing that perceived enjoyment during live-streaming is a crucial mediating variable affecting consumers' perceived value and purchase satisfaction of Jingdezhen ceramics. The study validates the significant impact of integrating Jingdezhen ceramics' traditional cultural characteristics with live-streaming presentation methods on consumer purchase decisions through rigorous SEM analysis. The statistical modeling reveals causal relationships among ceramic value perception, live- streaming interaction experience, and purchase outcomes. While the research is limited to Jingdezhen ceramic products, this SEM-based approach provides empirical evidence for optimizing traditional ceramic product marketing on digital platforms while offering theoretical guidance and practical implications for Jingdezhen ceramics' inheritance and innovation in the digital era. Keywords: Consumer satisfaction, Jingdezhen ceramics, Live-streaming Commerce, Perceived value, Structural equation modeling. 1. Introduction Jingdezhen, China's historical center of porcelain production , marked a significant milestone when designated as the 'Ceramic Culture Inheritance and Innovation Pilot Zone' in 2019 [1]. This initiative, aligned with China's 14th Five-Year Plan, emphasizes the digitalization of ceramic cultural heritage in the modern era [2]. The transformation has been particularly evident in the emergence of live- streaming retail [3] where traditional craft marketing meets digital innovation. TikTok China, with over 600 million daily active users [4] has become a pivotal platform for this digital transformation, particularly in the ceramic industry. Ceramic is one of product design needs certain quality of aesthetics on form-giving that reflects to the human sensation [5]. The integration of Jingdezhen's ceramic trade with live-streaming commerce has shown remarkable growth, with sales reaching 3.067 billion yuan in 2021 and doubling the following year [4]. This "ceramics + e-commerce + live streaming" model represents a significant innovation in traditional craft marketing. However, this rapid digital transformation has introduced new challenges, including inconsistent streaming quality, insufficient professional hosts, and discrepancies between online and offline consumer experiences of ceramic products. This may can be related to the attributes of unconscious interaction between human cognition and behavior in everyday product[6]. This research applies Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to analyze how consumers perceive and value Jingdezhen ceramics through TikTok China's live-streaming platform [2]. Specifically, it investigates the relationships between perceived value, enjoyment, purchase satisfaction, and post- purchase behavior. The findings aim to provide practical insights for optimizing product presentation, https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6752-3709 https://orcid.org/0009-0006-7802-1321 25 Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology ISSN: 2576-8484 Vol. 9, No. 8: 24-35, 2025 DOI: 10.55214/2576-8484.v9i8.9197 © 2025 by the authors; licensee Learning Gate streaming environments, and overall consumer experience in the digital marketing of traditional ceramics. 2. Related Work Perceived value theory serves as a crucial foundation for consumer behavior research. The seminal research by Sheth, et al. [7] deconstructed consumer perceived value into emotional, social, functional, cognitive, and contextual dimensions, creating a foundation for future studies [7]. With the development of live-streaming retail, scholars have begun to focus on consumer behavioral characteristics in this emerging field [8] found that perceived value in the live-streaming shopping environment exhibits new features, with interactivity and immediacy becoming key factors influencing consumer decision-making [8]. It can be seen through the case for intuition-driven design expertise [9]. In the context of live-streaming retail, Perceived Enjoyment (PE) demonstrates unique value. Xi, et al. [10] empirically confirmed that the entertainment and social aspects of live-streaming shopping significantly influence consumers' purchase intentions Xi, et al. [10]. Tian and Frank [11] further revealed that real-time interaction between streamers and viewers enhances user enjoyment experience, thereby facilitating purchase decisions [11]. Live-streaming Interactivity (LI), as a crucial characteristic, live-streaming Interactivity (LI) has received extensive attention. Through questionnaire surveys, Fan, et al. [12] discovered that real-time interaction in live-streaming rooms significantly affects consumer trust and purchase intention Fan, et al. [12]. Wu, et al. [13] indicated that different forms of interaction (such as bullet screens, virtual gifts, and Q&A) have varying degrees of influence on consumer behavior Wu, et al. [13]. Zhang, et al. [14] found that real-time interaction in live-streaming shopping enhances consumer purchase confidence more effectively than traditional e-commerce [14]. Product Authenticity (PA) plays a vital role in live-streaming retail. Liu and Sun [15] demonstrated that live demonstrations significantly enhance consumers' perception of product authenticity Liu and Sun [15]. Hamidah, et al. [16] pointed out that streamers' professional presentation and authentic interaction effectively reduce consumers' perceived risk [16]. Cultural products possess unique characteristics in live-streaming retail. Yingqing, et al. [17] found that presenting traditional cultural elements enhances product perceived value [17]. Through case analysis, Li, et al. [18] confirmed that cultural identity plays a crucial role in live-streaming sales of artistic products [18]. Regarding satisfaction and post-purchase behavior research, Li, et al. [19] discovered through questionnaire surveys that interaction quality in live-streaming shopping is significantly correlated with consumer satisfaction Li, et al. [19]. Yi, et al. [20] showed that live-streaming shopping satisfaction significantly influences consumers' repurchase intentions Yi, et al. [20]. Gallarza and Saura [21] empirically confirmed that word-of-mouth communication in social media environments has a significant impact on post-purchase behavior. The above research indicates that consumer behavior in live-streaming retail environments exhibits new characteristics, with factors such as perceived value, interactivity, and authenticity jointly influencing consumers' purchase decisions and post-purchase behavior. Based on these existing literature findings, this study constructs a consumer behavior research model adapted to live-streaming retail, providing a theoretical foundation for understanding consumer behavior in the new retail environment. 3. Methodology 3.1. Theoretical Framework Structural equation modeling (SEM), a statistical method for analyzing linear relationships between observed and latent variables, has been extensively validated in studies of customer satisfaction and behavioral intentions [21]. Based on the unique characteristics of Jingdezhen TikTok (China) short 26 Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology ISSN: 2576-8484 Vol. 9, No. 8: 24-35, 2025 DOI: 10.55214/2576-8484.v9i8.9197 © 2025 by the authors; licensee Learning Gate video commerce, our research model (Fig.1) examines the following relationships: Four key factors - product attributes, cultural elements, interactive features, and authenticity - shape consumers' perceived value in live-streaming environments. These factors, enhanced by perceived enjoyment, influence both purchase satisfaction and subsequent consumer behavior. The model further posits that satisfaction directly impacts post-purchase actions. Figure 1. Research model of this study. 3.2.

Questionnaire The empirical investigation utilized questionnaire data to examine how TikTok (China) platform characteristics influence consumers' value perception, perceived hedonism, purchase satisfaction, and post-purchase behavior. Data collection was conducted between March and May 2023, yielding 455 valid responses from 658 participants after excluding invalid submissions. The sample size exceeded the minimum requirement for structural equation modeling, being 30 times the number of questionnaire items [22]. Our instrument measured demographics (gender, age, education, monthly income) and platform- specific items (price, viewing frequency, ceramic product-related streaming preferences). Using a 7-point Likert scale, we measured eight constructs: authenticity, product characteristics, culture, interactivity, value perception, perceived enjoyment, purchase satisfaction, and post-purchase behavior. The measurement items were adapted from validated literature. 3.4. Date Collection Based on a survey of 455 respondents, the demographics reveal distinctive characteristics: a slightly higher proportion of females (55.4%), predominantly young adults aged 20-30 (48.4%), with a mean age of 30.2 years. The sample demonstrates high educational attainment, with over 60% holding bachelor's degrees or above. Regarding usage patterns, the average viewing duration is 2.6 hours, with more than 60% of users spending less than 3 hours daily. Preferences for ceramic products show diverse interests, averaging 3.8 categories per user, with coffee ware (78.7%) and ceramic handicrafts (58.9%) being the most popular choices. These findings paint a portrait of a well-educated, young user base characterized by diverse product interests and moderate usage habits (Table 1). Table 1.

Analysis and Results 3.1. Reliability Analysis We assessed measurement reliability using SPSS (Version 24.0). The Cronbach's α values for all constructs exceeded 0.9, substantially surpassing Hair [23] recommended threshold of 0.66. Item- total correlations were above 0.8, exceeding the standard criterion of 0.5. Additionally, removing any item would decrease the scale's alpha value, confirming that all items should be retained. These results demonstrate robust internal consistency of our measurement scales (Table 2). Table 2. Reliability Analysis.

Exploratory Factor Analysis SPSS 24.0 was used to conduct the Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) test and Bartlett's test of sphericity (Table 3). The KMO values ranged from 0.868 to 0.909, substantially exceeding the threshold of 0.5. Bartlett's test yielded significance levels approaching zero (p < 0.05), supporting the data's suitability for factor analysis [24, 25]. Principal component analysis revealed four factors with eigenvalues greater than 1 for each variable. The cumulative variance explained exceeded 50%, with item communalities above 0.5 and factor loadings above 0.6, meeting the criteria proposed by [26]. These results confirm the construct validity for subsequent analyses. 29 Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology ISSN: 2576-8484 Vol. 9, No. 8: 24-35, 2025 DOI: 10.55214/2576-8484.v9i8.9197 © 2025 by the authors; licensee Learning Gate Table 3.

Comparison of Fit Degree Following Xiong, et al. [30] we examined common method bias by comparing two models: one without (M1) and one with (M2) common method factors (Table 7). The comparison revealed minimal differences in fit indices - changes in RFI, TLI, NFI, and CFI did not exceed 0.1, while RMSEA showed no reduction [30]. Although M2 demonstrated marginally better fit, these results suggest that common method bias was adequately controlled in our study. Table 7. M1 and M2 Comparison of Fit Degree.

Structural Models Figure 2. Path Coefficient. Using AMOS with bootstrap bias-corrected percentile method (5,000 samples), the model testing revealed that 12 of 15 hypotheses were supported (Figure 2). Perceived enjoyment (PE) demonstrated significant direct effects (p < 0.05) on product characteristics (PC), cultural characteristics (CC), authenticity (PA), interactivity (LI), purchase satisfaction (PS), and post-purchase behavior (PB) (H1- H6). Interactivity and authenticity significantly influenced purchase satisfaction (H8-H9), while product characteristics and cultural aspects showed no significant impact (H7, H10). Purchase satisfaction, cultural characteristics, product features, and interactivity positively affected post-purchase behavior (H11, H12, H14, H15). However, product authenticity showed no significant effect on post-purchase behavior (H13). 33 Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology ISSN: 2576-8484 Vol. 9, No. 8: 24-35, 2025 DOI: 10.55214/2576-8484.v9i8.9197 © 2025 by the authors; licensee Learning Gate Table 9.

Discussion The structural equation modeling results revealed several key findings. First, perceived enjoyment significantly influences product perception across multiple dimensions (H2-H5), particularly through interactivity and authenticity. The interaction between streamers and consumers emerged as a crucial factor in enhancing consumer experience, emphasizing the importance of timely, professional, and exclusive engagement. Purchase satisfaction is primarily driven by product authenticity and live-streaming interactivity (H7, H8), while product culture and characteristics showed minimal impact. Notably, perceived enjoyment demonstrated strong positive effects on both purchase satisfaction (H1) and post-purchase behavior (H6, path coefficient = 0.255), suggesting that entertainment experience significantly influences consumer loyalty and product advocacy. Purchase satisfaction showed a moderate influence on post-purchase behavior (H11, path coefficient ≈ 0.3), while product characteristics, culture, and interactivity exhibited weaker effects (H12, H14, H15, coefficients between 0.1-0.3). Interestingly, three hypotheses were not supported: product characteristics and culture did not significantly affect purchase satisfaction, and product authenticity showed no direct impact on post-purchase behavior (H7, H10, H13). This suggests that in TikTok (China)'s live-streaming context, comprehensive product presentation and real-time interaction may be more influential than traditional product attributes. 5. Conclusions Based on the analysis of 455 valid questionnaires, this study examined consumer behavior on TikTok (China)'s live-streaming platform for Jingdezhen ceramics. The findings contribute to three key areas: (1) Academic Impact: This research extends the understanding of online consumer behavior by applying structural equation modeling (SEM) to analyze the unique characteristics of TikTok (China)'s live-streaming platform, particularly highlighting the significant role of enjoyment in perceived value. (2) Market Implications: Results suggest that platforms should prioritize younger generations' entertainment needs and shopping experiences to enhance satisfaction and post-purchase engagement. The findings advocate for transforming live-streaming from a mere sales channel into an engaging cultural experience. 34 Edelweiss Applied Science and Technology ISSN: 2576-8484 Vol. 9, No. 8: 24-35, 2025 DOI: 10.55214/2576-8484.v9i8.9197 © 2025 by the authors; licensee Learning Gate (3) Policy Recommendations: While TikTok (China) serves as a valuable platform for promoting Jingdezhen's ceramic culture, regulatory oversight is needed to maintain product quality and market integrity through appropriate policy frameworks. 6. Limitation and Future Research This study has several limitations. First, the sample was predominantly young respondents (73.9% under 40), potentially biasing results toward younger consumers. Second, future research could incorporate perceived trust as an additional variable and extend beyond Jingdezhen ceramics to other product categories. Finally, while this study included cultural elements, future research should explore cultural perception more deeply, particularly in the context of intangible cultural heritage. Transparency: The authors confirm that the manuscript is an honest, accurate, and transparent account of the study; that no vital features of the study have been omitted; and that any discrepancies from the study as planned have been explained. This study followed all ethical practices during writing. Copyright: © 2025 by the authors.
